Answer:

Answer:

y=mx+c

We have to find the value of m and c.

Let's substitute the value of x and y from the table.

When x=1, y=15,

15= m(1)+c

m +c= 15 ------(1)

Now substitute another set of x and y values.

When x=2, y=24,

24= m(2)+c

2m +c= 24

c= 24 -2m ------(2)

Let me rewrite the two equations so that it is clearer for you to see.

m + c= 15 -----(1)

c = 24 -2m -----(2)

subst. (2) into (1):

m+ 24-2m= 15

-m= 15-24 (bring constants to 1 side, m terms to the other)

-m= -9 (simplify)

m= 9 ( divide by -1 throughout)

subst. m=9 into (2):

c= 24 -2(9)

c= 24-18

c= 6

Thus, the equation is y=9x+6.

When the cat is 3 years old, x=3.

When x=3,

y= 9(3)+6

y= 33.

Hence, the cat is 33 years old in human years.

Is 4y - 8 > 10 true?

Answers

4y-8>10

Add 8

4y-8+8>10+8

4y>18

Now divide both sides by 4

4y/4 > 18/4

y>9/2


Now let's see if it will be true

Replace y by its value

4(9/2)-8>10

36/2 -8 > 10

18-8 > 10

10 > 10

That's false because 10 can not smaller than 10

so it should be = instead


Answer : False

K-17=-12 I need help solveing this

Answers

remember, you can do ANYTHING to an equaiton as long as you do it to BOTH SIDES

we can try to get k by itself bymaking that -17 into 0 since k+0=k

-17+17=0 right so

K-17=-12
add 17 to BOTH SIDES
K+17-17=17-12
K+0=5
K=5
We'll just isolate the variable to find what the variable stands for.

K - 17 = - 12
  +17      +17

k = 5

Plug it back in.

k - 17 = - 12

5 - 17 = -12
-12 = -12

So yes, it is correct.
